In 1860| cranky old miser Ebenezer Scrooge hates Christmas; loathes people and defends the decrease of the surplus of poor population; runs his bank exploiting his
employee Bob Cratchit and clients| giving a bitter treatment to his own nephew and acquaintances. However| on Christmas Eve| he is visited by the doomed ghost of his
former partner Jacob Marley that tells him that three spirits would visit him that night. The first one| the spirit of Christmas Past| recalls his miserable youth
when he lost his only love due to his greed; the spirit of Christmas Present shows him the poor situation of Bob's family and how joyful life may be; and the spirit
of Christmas Future shows his fate. Scrooge finds that life is good and time is too short and suddenly you are not there anymore| changing his behavior toward
Christmas| Bob| his nephew and people in general.
